Well - here's something you don't see every day :confused: :biggrin:

Not the usual Grebe shot I know, but I thought I'd post it anyway - stunningly ornate and strikingly beautiful bird, ever likely they keep those 'plates of meat' below the water line :smile:

Ideas for photo caption anyone??? :wink: :wink:

Usual techs
D200
Sig 500mm f4.5(hh)
ISO 250
1/800th @ f6.3

CS2 levels,sat & USM

Best Regards

Andy
